I became familiar with physical and mental care due to my grandma's aging, health problems, and developing dementia. My family is small, so during this time I became her sole caretaker in all areas, such as cooking, cleaning, showering, changing diapers, and much more. I also became a huge support for my special needs uncle due to my grandma's declining health and her not being able to be his caretaker any longer. I aided him in taking his medications, practicing proper hygiene, transporting him to all appointments and to his job, and helping him through this tough situation with his mom becoming ill.
